FOURME D'Ambert Cheese per 100g

Originating from the Auvergne region, Fourme d'Ambert (simply Ambert) is one of France's oldest cheeses, tracing its roots back nearly 1,000 years to the Roman occupation. The cheese received AOC status in 2002. It distinguishes itself with a texture that is more supple and dense compared to most blue cheeses. Its interior boasts a cream-colored paste with prominent blue veins. A slightly tangy and savory profile, enhanced by the presence of bacteria, beautifully complements hints of butter and cream.

For wine enthusiasts, Fourme d'Ambert pairs well with Sauternes and other dessert wines, as well as Pinot Noir and Syrah.
